Jesse was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio and graduated from North College Hill Jr./Sr. High School. He's been actively involved in all sorts of sports for most of his life, which include Basketball, Soccer, Baseball, and Track & Field. He found joy in all, but most of all in playing soccer, so he pursued a soccer career at Tiffin University. During his college years he studied Young Adolescence Education and Communications all while playing soccer. What Jesse likes most about UPfield is seeing the kids faces light up when they do something they say they can't do! Some of Jesse’s favorite things are ICEEs, PF Changs and playing FIFA (EAFC)!
